Democrat Jim Moran: Jewish Conspiracy Controls The Media
That’s not how he put it, of course, but he may as well have.
In an interview with Tikkun, a California-based Jewish magazine, Moran said the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) is “the most powerful lobby and has pushed this war from the beginning. I don’t think they represent the mainstream of American Jewish thinking at all, but because they are so well organized, and their members are extraordinarily powerful — most of them are quite wealthy — they have been able to exert power.”
[...]
AIPAC “members are willing to be very generous with their personal wealth. But it’s a two-edged sword. If you cross AIPAC, AIPAC is unforgiving and will destroy you politically. Their means of communications, their ties to certain newspapers and magazines, and to individuals in the media are substantial and intimidating.”
Of course, the NAACP has substantial ties to certain media outlets and powerful politicians. So do a lot of other lobbyists. Here in the heartland, the agriculture lobbyists all but send out politicians paychecks.
So why does Moran single out the Jews? It’d be interesting to hear him answer that.
